If they were going to call a console the "revolution", they could at least make it purple.
p.s. where's the controller shaped like a kiwi fruit that you have to peel to control the latest novelty game?

i thought the X box looks like ass, it looks like it belongs in the 60's with a dome chair and the ps2 looks like some sort of sandwirch maker

the cube was purple so thats no revolution
ninty would prolly have a tft casing which changes color depending on the time of day and game you are playing!!11 OMG THE INNOVATIVITY IS ALMOST TASTABLE !!!

and indeed. show us the controller. i dont care that much how the machine looks like. i dont have to use it other than press "on". the controller however i do use, and the cube controller was too awkward for any games other than exclusives

Remember, ninty are saying "fuck you" to old style games. So expect the revolution to be something very, very different...

erm
May 17, 2005 - New details regarding Nintendo's next-generation console, codenamed Revolution, have started to sprinkle onto the Internet. The machine, which will be revealed during Nintendo's pre-E3 2005 show on Tuesday morning in Los Angeles, will sport a slick, black design and a front blue light.
Revolution will be "two-to-three times more powerful than GameCube," according to Nintendo, which also acknowledges that the next-generation race isn't solely about new technologies. By contrast, Microsoft's Xbox 360 console is 13-15 times more powerful than the first, according to the publisher. And Sony says it's PlayStation 3 is roughly 35 times more powerful than PlayStation 2.
Nintendo also revealed that using Revolution's new Wi-Fi connection, gamers would be able to go online to a free gamer-matching service. Interestingly, in a move similar to Microsoft's Xbox Live Arcade service, Revolution users will be able to download classic and new Nintendo games over the Internet. Nintendo cited such examples as Donkey Kong and Super Mario Sunshine, which suggests that Revolutionaries could have access to games for all the publisher's previous consoles.

That part is super fucking cool, being able to download all the games.
But I also remember reading something about Nintendo's newer games taking a totally different approach - something about added dimensions or the likes - really did sound somewhat revolutionary.
Not sure where I read the article though.

Exactly. Thats what i read. Whats the point of calling it the "revolution" if its twice as slow as everything else and just does the same games?
